The ability to speak more than one language places students with these skills at great advantage in our world today. In our mission we state "global citizenship" because it is imperative for the success of today's global market. By learning another language (or several), students will increase their cultural awareness and acquire global empathy. These are traits many employers are seeking in their prospective employees.

In addition, most bilingual individuals tend to earn 10% or more than their monolingual counterparts. ACTFL(American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages) has provided various sources and information in regards to the benefits of being bilingual today.
